Laser Transformation Hardening

TL;DR: In the early 1970s, surface hardening by inducing phase transformations through the heating effect of a laser beam was one of the first laser-based fabrication methods to be commercialised as discussed by the authors.

Laser transformation hardening of tempered 4340 steel

TL;DR: In this article, a CO2 laser with a fixed laser power of 1.8 KW was employed to harden the surface of some AISI 4340 steel specimens, with a scan rate from 5 to 10 mm/s.

Effect of laser hardening on the fatigue strength and fracture of a B–Mn steel

TL;DR: In this article, the influence of laser hardening on plane bending fatigue behavior (R=−1) of a B-Mn SS2131 (∼AISI 15B21H) steel has been studied.

Microstructure, hardness and stress in melted zone of 42CrMo steel by wide-band laser surface melting

TL;DR: In this article, a 3D finite element model has been developed to simulate the wide-band LSM process and predict the thermal and mechanical properties in the melted zone, and the accuracy of the developed finite element simulation strategy is validated for phase proportion and hardness distributions through the wideband laser surface melting on roller steel with proper instrumentation for data measurement.

A Mechanical Determination of Biaxial Residual Stress in Sheet Materials

TL;DR: In this article, a method for determining the residual stress in a sheet material by removing successive uniform layers of material from the surface of a test specimen and measuring the resulting curvature is given.

The role of residual stresses in the mechanical performance of case carburized steels

TL;DR: The residual stresses in case of carburized steels stem from two major sources, both of which are associated with the rapid cooling of the steels from elevated temperatures as discussed by the authors.

The effect of quench rate on the properties and morphology of ferrous martensite

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of high quench rate on theMs temperature, percent transformed, martensite morphology and austenite hardness has been studied for several Fe-Ni-C steels.

Apparatus for the continuous analysis of residual stresses in proximity to metallic surfaces

TL;DR: In this article, a new apparatus for the continuous measurement of residual stresses (both at the surface and in the underlying strata) in variously treated metal disks (carburizing, shot peening, nitriding, surface hardening, ion implantation, etc.).

Device for the determination of biaxial‐symmetrical residual stresses in metallic, disk‐shaped specimens

TL;DR: In this paper, the residual stresses in metallic disks up to 3 mm thickness due to axi-symmetric surface treatments on both faces were determined by measuring normal stresses at any point on planes orthogonal to the disk in the cases of compressive internal stresses on carburized, nitrided, chromed, peened, etc., surfaces.
